So, haven't you guys noticed how imba Assimilator is, it has 450+450 hp while terran refinery only has 450.

So its like 450 hp more! Its really furstrating to destroy gasier when protoss player steals one. Need to be nerfed to 225+225!

Gas steal is incredibly annoying because of it's hp, but imba certainly isn't the word for it.

Imba is the perfect word for it, same basicly its the "basic building" which is same to all and they should share the same amount of hp.

Yeah I also find it odd that the assimilator has 450/450 HP while the refinery and extractor both have 500.

Aside from gas steals, the only place I've seen it make any difference is with nukes (nukes kill extractors and refineries in 1 hit but assimilators survive).

Terran is already so OP why do toss players have to suffer more? seriously you guys get the stims faster and the concussive shells faster too. Terran upgrades are super cheap in comparison to protoss. really one assimilator sitting on one of your gas geysers isn't really holding you back that much.

maybe when stimpack + marine health go back to 150/150.. and concussive goes back to 100/100, actually that should be 150/150 too.
